    Kitty--my creative juices have dried up with a lot of other things.....maybe a banner and/or t-shirts that show the cards in a Royal Flush and says, "Flush Breast Cancer".   LOL--maybe tomorrow can come up with something better!

    Kathy, what a cute picture of you! It is small, but looks like it might be in Hawaii? Those dinners you are describing sound delish! YUMMMMMMMMM! So glad you guys got to go! ....and I hope you are still winning!

    Junie and HD, those are both good (for being Vegas related) Kathy's was good too! Not much of an imagination here on my end. I bet Dee can come up with something too.

    So far......hope I don't hurt any feelings.....I like HD's.

    Hope everyone has a great weekend....Blondie!

    Good morning,

    Wow, I slept for 11 hours! It was nice, but now my back is screaming at me. I hope everyone is fine as wine and has a great day! It is nice and sunny right now, the snow is melting, but I did see yesterday on the news that we are supposed to get hit with another snow storm by Tuesday. Kitty how about Vegas Vixons? I will have to think about it for awhile, I'm still not quite fully awake. Gotta get up and get my bones over to the mimosa fountain.

    Sending out love to all my breast friends! 

    Cya later!

    Dee~

    Kitty--two final thoughts for your team...

    1) be the STOMP OUT BREAST CANCER team.   That on back of t-shirt and on front, FIND A CURE!   Carry garbage can lids and something to beat them with every so often.......

    2)  Be the BREAST CANCER IS CRAPS!! team.  That on back of t-shirt and on front, ROLL FOR A CURE with a dice logo.

    Have a window open today for some fresh air, but am watching the clouds build up.  It's anybody's guess if we will get rain or snow...I'm so ready for spring!

    It's early for happy hour but I'm taking my filled bucket out to the pool and see who shows up!  Think the guys are working on a great afternoon buffet for us.  (Jocks called Wahine to get the menu for one of her fab meals!!!)   See you all poolside!!!

    Junie, good ones for team Kitty!  Mind if I join you in an early happy hour?  34 degrees here so no open windows.  I am headed for the pool.  Kathy if you win a bunch of money, don't hide it under the mattress and then get drunk.  Had a friend do that and he forgot about it.  House a keeping had a big tip that next day!  LOL  HD

    Edited to add:  Connie....hope you are doing well!

    Hi Gals....junie really good ideas for names, and fun things to go with them! Finally had some really good "Slippery Nipples"....with butterscotch schnapps, vodka. baileys, and Triple Sec....OMG those were soooo good! Then a couple of Seagrams/Diet Coke. DH embarassed me with "Hunk"...what else is new??? But Hunks baby has strep throat, so worried about that. Gotta get hungry for the Filet Mignon and Crab Legs....boy life sure is hard...LOL. Hope everyone is having a nice Saturday, and nice weather to go with it. Junie, met several people here from AR!

    Down the Hatch,

    HB, NM!!!  I'll never master posting pics, so here's my contribution:  

    Sweet, precious Snookie

    Found a choc chip cookie

    and dropped it at NM's feet.

    "Here's MY birthday treat!"

    NM hugged Snookie

    And ate the cookie

    Dreamed of making wine...

    Oh, today's been fine!

    Glad you had a happy day and thanks for the extra drinks!!!   Big huggssss for the birthday girl!!!

    *shuffles into the room - Whoever says that someone is "resting comfortably" in hospital has clearly never been in a hospital as a patient!

    The surgeries went well. The gyn onc team has told us that all of the organs they took out were CLEAR OF CANCER!!! We are thrilled by this.

    My new breast is awesome! I'm so glad I chose to go this route. This week has been hard but the results will so be worth it! One more surgery to get the other one to match this one and I'm done. We've decided against a nipple and tattoo. They just aren't that important to us.

    I'm still in the hospital but should be going home tomorrow. I can't wait to climb into bed and snuggle with my kitty!

    They're here to do my vitals, again, so I'll chat with you tomorrow!

    Connie, Thanks for letting us know you are doing okay. SO glad you should get to go home tomorrow! AND wonderful news that they got all the cancer out!!! HOORAY!!!!

    junie, What a cute poem for NM....so appropriate with Snookie in it too!!

    NM, Joining everyone else in wishing you a very wonderful Birthday, although it does sound like it was absolutely perfect! So glad you had such a nice day!!! Thanks for the drink, too.

    Soooooo stuffed. HD, just got online and saw your post....sorry I didn't see it b4 dinner,so I could have some crab for you. I sure ate enough...and 2 filet mignons.....boy were they good. Guess I gained back those pounds I lost the past couple of weeks!

    Bottoms Up,

    Thank you all for the b-day wishes!  Snookie says thank you to Junie.  Going to start my first batch of wine when I get home from church today, can't wait!  By next year I should have a whole collection of homemade wines to share.  I'm really looking forward to making mint wine--I've got a good size mint patch that should give me plenty to work with. 

    BTW, Snookie got a nice treat yesterday, too--my friend gave her his leftover steak and smashed potato from Bugaboo Creek.  She gobbled it down and then ignored me to pay attention to him until he left!

    Good morning all!

    YAY!! Connie, congrats on your good news and now just go home to rest and recovery!  NM, good to hear you had a winerful B-Day!  Love your poem Junie, how cute :) K, bring me home some filet please! You can keep the crabs...lol It looks like we are going to start getting some rain, as long as the temp stays up a bit that's okay with me. We do not want anymore snow! Was out running some errands yesterday and found that one of my wheel rims had cracked and was ready to break in half!  How in the world does that happen? So, had to spend the afternoon getting some new rims on my car. What a drag! Had to dip into the vaca fund so now it will be a bit longer before we get to take off. Oh well as granny used to say, it's either an ass or an elbow.

    Y'all have a spectacular day!

    OXOXOXOX  Dee~

    Dee, Your grandma sure had a keen sense of humor! Thats priceless. Sorry to hear about your car probs, but very thankful you  noticed it b4 it may have caused an accident. Never ends, does it! Am hoping for no more snow for you!!!!

    My beloved island of Madeira has been hit by heavy rains, mudslides,and today the news said over 40 have died, many injured, and many missing. Hit the capital of Funchal, where we have relatives, plus that is the main city and the tourist area. I feel for all of them there, as that is such an idyllic island, usually very safe, and it is beautiful there. The people have always been friendly to us.lts also my mom's favorite place to visit. This is heavy on my heart, and we are never able to reach those relatives, so we will never know. We got to meet them twice, but they never answer letters, and we have no phone no for them...but  they're absolutely great in person! I feel for ALL the people there.

    Well, we are leaving Tunica today..I think I need a couple of Slippery Nipples for the road! Prob is, only one of the bartenders makes it that special way, so I am HOPING she will be here today! I think the others just put the schnapps and baileys. Ah, such is life!

    Cheers to safe trips, no more muddy slips, and gentle rainy drips (no snow!),

    Kathy, aka Raquelle

    Time sure flies...Ericka is it time for your exchange already??? I love the pic of us all toasting to you, with our pink drinks! Like Dee, I am also wishing you the very best, and hope you can get online and let us know how you are doing!

    I have blood work done tomorrow,and with all the eating and drinking for 3 days in Tunica, I know it might not be so good. But we DID have fun, and brought back some $$, so all is good. A new bartender made my "Nipple" drink, so it wasn't as good. Fun to order it though!

    Cheers to all of you awesome gals,

    Thanks, gals. After my blood work I am seeing another dr about some moles I have been concerned about. Will be a busy day! Did anyone see this video that was on the news about Earleen, who does the 3D nipple tats? She is the one I plan to go to, hopefully late spring or summer. Here is the link http://www.vimeo.com/9487306. Wishing a really good Monday to everyone!!!

    Morning all,

    Started to leave a message yesterday morning and then had to log off, so didn't get to. Connie glad everything is good for you, don't over do it when you go home. REST!

    NM, Happy Belated Birthday, hope you had a great day.

    E, we will be there with you, just like we have with everyone else. Like Kathy said, check in when you can.

    Kathy, sending good vibes your way too!

    We are off to Vegas this weekend, for another trade show. I use to love going to these shows, but now it is just same ole! Too much walking!

    Here is my new hair. Style still the same, she thinned it out alot and gave me lots of highlights. I like!

    dee--my gma used to say that too!!!  that & ' whatever blows your hair back"

    lori---great pic--curious--did you have to do chemo?   just wondering as our dx is nearly the same except for stage. 

    made it through the weekend, hubby was a dear & bought me some flavored water--sure helped with getting it down.  now i can pretend it's some fruity cutie in a martini glass & just chug away.

    connie--so glad you are back & with good news.  take care.

    Grdnslve, yes I did chemo. I finished chemo treatments in Sept of 08. So it has been almost a year and a half!
